About this game
In a Persian steampunk empire, will you use your arcane alchemy to repair a spaceship, or pilot a mech? Ignite a revolution, snuff it out, or play both sides against each other? “Heavens’ Revolution: A Lion Among the Cypress” is an interactive retrofuturistic fantasy novel by Peter Adrian Behravesh, inspired by eighteenth-century Iran, where your choices control the story. It’s entirely text-based—275,000 words and hundreds of choices, without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

When the Revolutionists try to recruit you to their cause, will you share their view that they fight for justice? Or will you remain loyal to the satrap, upholding your duty as a soldier? Or will you play a game more dangerous than your fiercest alchemical flame, feeding information from one faction to another as a spy? You had best hope that you don’t end up on the wrong side of a shamshir’s blade. Play as male, female, or nonbinary; gay, straight, bi, or asexual. Master arcane astralchemy to craft powerful weapons, open your own workshop, or secure a professorship at the University Rise within the ranks of the military and command an army to defend the satrap Or, join the revolution, o…
